...because there are still some leftover compatibility issues with some of the games I've tried to use...mostly DirectX crap...I've failed to get some things running on W2k.

But...since I'm not a big game player...there's no way in hell you would get me to run ME....

Of that family of Windows...98SE is my last...any further moves up will be to 2k or Linux (and have been)

During the development of WinXP, they created a fairly large app compatability layer for WinXP, which they backported to Win2k and stuck in Win2k SP2. It's not enabled by default, but by doing the reghack listed above, it adds a compatability tab to your program's property page. Rather handy.
